SlidePad™

SlidePad™ was designed to replace old, unsafe landing pads.

Commonly used landing pads are constructed of several layers of laminated foam glued together on top of a thin PVC base. The entire pad is then wrapped in a layer of vinyl pool liner material. Repeated impact results in a breakdown in the foam's density, causing the vinyl to peel away at the edges and cracks to form.

Construction

During the AquaPebble™ encapsulation process, these polyolefin pebbles are chemically bonded to the foam base using a proprietary bonding adhesive. The polyolefin pebbles are then hermetically sealed with a clear chlorine-resistant flexible coating.

This proprietary process ensures that SlidePad™ remains not only chlorine-resistant, but also resistant to UV exposure and impervious to water as well as fungistatic and hygienic.

SlidePad™ can be custom designed with your water park's logo and/or color scheme as well as customized to any size or shape, even aquatic animals!

The most common landing pad failures:

Fading, discoloration

Disintegration

Corner cracking that causes scrapes and water to enter into the pad

Rusting and missing bolts/fasteners

Stress cracking in a PVC base from repeated impact

SlidePad™ vs. Traditional Landing Pads

SlidePad™ has NO MOVING PARTS and will not crack, discolor, separate or lose foam compression despite repeated use. Installations requires NO BOLTS, FASTENERS OR METAL COMPONENTS of any kind, making SlidePad™ a safer landing pad for your water park guests.
